“How can we change had seen so that it is in the pa simple tense?” (saw)
• Invite udents to discuss with an elbow partner and change the verb in their
note-catchers.
“How would changing the verb to pa simple change the meaning of the sentence?” (We would not know exactly when this action was completed, so it might mean that Señora Ortega was not sure Abuelita was ill in the house. It might mean that she saw Abuelita for an in ant rather than for a short period of time.)
“Would that meaning make sense?” (No. Señora Ortega was not sure if Abuelita was ill in the house. She was telling Miguel that she saw her for a few moments, but could not see her anymore.)

“What other que ions can we ask that will help us under and this sentence?” (Responses will vary.)
